  • The Power of the Steel-tipped Pen: Reconstructing Native Hawaiian Intellectual History

    Noenoe K Silva, Ngũgĩ Wa ThiongʼoBOOKPower of the Steel-Tipped Pen2020

    In The Power of the Steel-tipped Pen Noenoe K. Silva reconstructs the indigenous intellectual history of a culture where-using Western standards-none is presumed to exist.

    Jonathan Goldberg-Hiller, Jonathan Goldberg‐hiller et al.ARTICLESouth Atlantic Quarterly2011Cited by: 17
